A Chip Of the Old Block.

The great John Bright has son in
parliament who thinks and acts for
himself. Strange as 1T may appear,
he doesn't think and act as his father
does. The son is an ardent "home
ruler" and after making q bright
speech in favor of the Gladstone meas
ure his father wrote him a sharp let
ter, calling his speech nonsense. +"
Whereupon the son replied to his fa-
ther as follows:
DEAR FATHER: am in receipt OF your
letter, and after carefully reading have
come to the conclusion that it is not such
o communication as one statesman should
address to another; therefore, you'll ex.
cuse me il do not answer it.

Notes on Footwear.
from the Buffalo Courier

from tD6 OuualO COurloF.
Footwear is cheap. Never were
boots and shoes more easily procura-
BILE than at the present moment. The
improvement s in shoe. building mater
ial of late years explain the cheapness.
A proprietor of a Portland, Me-, shoe
house said to q, reporter few days
ago: at dosen't take long to makeM
pair OF ladies' shoes. Some time ago.
gentleman and his wife walked in(X
our factory, and in just one hour and
thirty three minutes the lady left the
house wearing pair of fine shoes
which were made tor her from the
stock while she was in the factory.
These shoes were made on single set
of machinery and passed through the
hands OF the different operatives at
their machines. By running double
set of machinery and crowding the
machines our crew of 100 men make
600 pairs of shoes in day, or one
pair Of shoes per minute. That is six
pairs of shoes to a man."

SOME Of the aspirants for political hon.
ors in Dakota who imagine themselves
large enough to represent zone great
state" and are now engaged in q des-
perate struggle to dodge the division
issue, will make the discovery ere long
that if Dakota we're divided into four
states, they couldn't get an indorsment
to represent a legislative district in
either division. There are few things
to our mind so detestable as a political
coward-a man who has no convictions
when important issues are up /; don't
know whether he is for or against the
proposition, but holds himself in readi-
ness to enter as a DARK horse. These
few brief reflections crowd themselves
upon Is after having read several re
cent issues of a certain st. Paul "Da

A GRAND

Division is growing III popularity
every day. Congress has withheld (.
ton in the matter OF the division or ad-
mission of Dakota for the reason that
the people have never declared their
wishes at the ballot box. Numerous
conventions, Democratic us well as Re-
publican, have passed resolutions in
favor of division. No political body in
the territory that we have a record of
has had the temerity to declare in
favor of admission as q whole. Moth
ing would be more unpopular; nothing
could be further from the absolute de.
sire of large majority of the people.
The last legislature, in response to a
strong public demand, made provision
for holding an election in November,
at which time the people will have an
opportunity to declare their preference.
1t is now q foregone conclusion that
the vote will be largely in favor of di.
vision on the seventh standard parallel
The vote should be large and decisive.
1t should be such Il vote as will forever
remove the of congressional in
action. If the poll is light or the ma.
jority small, no matter which way the
majority may be, the opposition on
either side will point to the fact that
there was a lack of interest, and thus
attempt to effect further delay. The
congressman have said. and they say
now, that Dakota people don't know
what they want, and there has been
shadow of truth in the assertion. We
have flew marplots in the territory who
would be delighted to see this state Of
uncertainty prolonged indefinitely, but
1t cannot beprolonged without injury to
our progress. and every man who has
a pride in the privilege of Lying in {
country where he may enjoy all the
rights of an American citizen should
enter into a full determination to cast {
ballot at the division election in Novem
Der.
Paramount among the reasons for
full vote on that occasion is the influ
enee that a step toward statehoot
would have upon the land question il
Dakota. Would the commissioner O
the general land Office have dared Il
treat the people of this territory rs HI
has treated them il they were in a pc
sition to cast a vote for president, or i
their representatives in congress had
voice in making national laws? Tn
settlers of the state of Minnesota hav
escaped the hardships and indignitie
heaped upon Dskota claimants. TIL
